The shaped molten copper core is hard to defend against....They're EXTREMELY effective. The RPG 40 is nice but it's no grenade Launcher. Not even close....call it a storng armed grenade throing machine or something like that. J/K...I dunno WHAT to call it but it wouldn't be RPG anything. IMO of course. :) VERY LITTLE beats the RPG 7 and I’d rather have one of those and a few rockets. The shaped molten copper core is hard to defend against….They’re EXTREMELY effective.

It is not RPG-40. It is RGP-40. RGP is from Rewolwerowy Granatnik Polautomatyczny (Revolver Semiautomatic Grenade-launcher). RGP-40 is genuine Polish construction. Weapon in present form is only ugly functional model, I hope final model will be more ergonomic. There are in Poland very big family of lethal and non-lethal 40 x 46 mm rounds named SBAO-40 with almost 20 types of rounds.
